    Those elderberries were so lovely. The rosehips are so juicy with all the rain you’ve had. They are packed with vitamin C and can be made into a jam or scrape out the seeds and dry for tea.
    I love the green stopper as well.
    The rising tide, your music and shots of flowers were so peaceful. Thank you.

My dream is to visit some day to lark along with some of my favorite mudlarkers! 😊

    Alex, congratulations on finding the beautiful green stopple bopper. I don't live in the UK, but I thought it looked like the emblem of the Prince of Wales's feathers.
    Looking forward to seeing your treasures at the roundup.
    If someone is interested in foraging for fruit, that river foreshore is really the place for that with the blackberries, elderberries & it looks like apples as well. My goodness, you found loads of beads & Codd marbles.

    The green stopper is amazing! That lid probably are grapes and the rest of the jar looked the same. I have two very similar jars I inherited from my Aunt, meant for jams and jelly, one is shaped like a blackberry and the other is a strawberry. Mine aren’t very old though, but I wouldn’t be surprised if that was the kind of jar your lid fits on. My friends make elderberry jam, it’s really good…

    One thing I find helpful when cleaning small bottles like your perfume bottle find is I will use either tiny glass seed beads or rice. Put some in the bottle with a little soap and water and shake it vigorously for a few seconds. They'll pour out easily and works like a gentle abrasive.
